Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pork

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Marinate the pork loin in the mojo marinade for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight. Roast the marinated pork loin in the oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Let it rest before slicing.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Slice the hoagie rolls lengthwise. Layer the sliced roasted pork loin, smoked ham, Swiss cheese, pickles, and yellow mustard onto the bottom half of the hoagie roll.

  3. 3

    Press the Sandwich

    Close the sandwich and press it in a panini press or grill it in a skillet with a weight on top until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown, about 3-5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Cut the sandwich in half and serve hot. Enjoy your Cuban!
